Cedar Keys Jan 7th 68Dear Brother Dan I should have written to you long ago, but what with the ex- citement & inconvencies of travel & my long sickness of two months. I have been hindered from writing almost all together I mean to start for Cuba in two days, & if well enough will proceed to S.' America. I am not very well yet. I was kept down with coast fever & [illegible]. I hope I may be able to complete my journey I had a very happy ramble through the south & have many a story to tell you when we [illegible] meet. I suppose you are now quite strong and are making as many chips as anybody. I hope you will be successful in establish- ing yourself in Mich & in becoming rich enough to marry if not to travel, I wish you were with me, I am sometimes lonely but I dispel my sore thoughts with the hope of seeing the snow capped Andes & the flowers of the equator.
